No problem... and also don't forget that the DNS server you point to doesn't keep authoritative records on every domain, so it too has to go out and query servers higher in the hierarchy to get the...

very negligible.... in fact, I'd say any speed increase you think you're getting, unless your current DNS is appalling, would be nothing more than a placebo. When you go to hit a website (lets say...

it shouldn't cause problems with Comodo, although you may need to change it's "don't allow changes to DNS" setting while you do the change - you should set the first one as the fast one, and then use...

I found how to pull it up through the CMD prompt. It showed both 8.26.56.26 and 156.154.70.22 as my DNS servers. I pinged both of them and they both came out at 42ms. I pinged 8.20.247.20 and it...

Thanks a lot. I just did what you said and 208.67.220.220 came back with the lowest average time at 27ms. How do I find and test which DNS Comodo is using so I can ping it and see the time with...

press the start menu - type in "cmd" and hit enter - a black box should pop up from there, type "ping 8.8.8.8" and hit enter - you should now be pinging the google DNS server at 8.8.8.8, and be...

Sure that is a good thing to not allow your DNS to change. I think the real question is whether or not you want to use Comodo's DNS servers for your DNS or someone else is up to you.

as above people said. Use 208.67.222.222 or 208.67.220.220 They are operated by opendns.org and they prevent fake/phishing and scams that your ISPs DNS does not detect.

any of the above are fine, if you really want to get the best one though, try pinging each of the above - the faster ones are better, and generally that translates into your ISP's

8.8.8.8 is google, 208.67.222.222 ,208.67.220.220 are opendns's if you use one of the 2 and you should be good.

By default you probably use your isp's dns servers, but you can use whos ever you want. 4.2.2.1 is a common alternative as is 75.75.75.75. it doesn't make any difference really so long as you trust...

I recently installed Comodo firewall and was given the option to have Comodo change the DNS. How do I determine whether or not this is good for me?
